Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rubber ball counting and sorting technology, specifically a convenient rubber ball counting and sorting tool. Background Technology

[0002] Most power plants now use sponge ball cleaning devices for their condenser circulating water to ensure condenser cleanliness and improve heat exchange efficiency. The ball collection net is installed on the circulating water pipe at the condenser outlet and its function is to collect the sponge balls that have been used in the circulating water. The ball loading chamber is a key component of the sponge ball cleaning device; it is installed on the condenser circulating water outlet pipe and its function is to separate and collect the sponge balls that have been used in the circulating water at the condenser outlet for recirculation.

[0003] However, in daily operations, the number of rubber balls added and counted each time is large, and manual counting is used, which is time-consuming and easily affected by external environmental interference, leading to statistical errors. During the operation of the unit's rubber ball cleaning device, cumulative errors in the addition, retrieval, and counting of rubber balls result in inaccurate ball collection rate calculations. Consequently, after the ball collection net is opened, residual rubber balls flow out with the circulating water, causing blockages in the water distribution pipes and nozzles in the cooling tower, posing a significant risk to the unit's equipment operation.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a convenient tool for counting and sorting rubber balls to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a convenient tool for counting and sorting rubber balls, addressing the problem mentioned in the background art where, in daily work, the number of rubber balls input and counted is large, requiring manual counting, which is time-consuming and easily affected by external environmental interference, leading to errors. Furthermore, during the operation of the rubber ball cleaning device, cumulative errors in rubber ball input and retrieval result in inaccurate ball collection rate calculations. This leads to residual rubber balls flowing out with the circulating water after the ball collection net is opened, causing blockages in the water distribution pipes and nozzles of the cooling tower, posing a significant risk to the operation of the unit equipment.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a convenient ball counting and sorting tool, comprising a small ball sorting tray and a large ball sorting tray slidably installed on the upper end of the small ball sorting tray. A fixing plate one is provided inside the small ball sorting tray, and a plurality of small ball limiting holes are equally spaced on the fixing plate one. A fixing plate two is fixedly installed inside the large ball sorting tray, and a plurality of large ball limiting holes are equally spaced on the fixing plate two.

[0007] Preferably, the number of small ball limiting holes is the same as the number of large ball limiting holes, and when the small ball sorting tray and the large ball sorting tray are stacked together, the small ball limiting holes correspond one-to-one with the large ball limiting holes.

[0008] Preferably, a color plate is fixedly installed at the lower end of the fixing plate, and the color plate adopts a color that is significantly different from other components.

[0009] Preferably, an annular protrusion is fixedly installed on the upper side wall of the small ball sorting tray, and a groove is provided at the lower end of the large ball sorting tray, with the annular protrusion slidably connected in the groove.

[0010] Preferably, the outer peripheral sidewall of the large ball sorting tray is provided with a lifting groove.

[0011] Preferably, a secondary sorting plate is movably provided on the upper end of the fixed plate, and support rods are fixedly installed at the four corners of the secondary sorting plate. Several cylinders are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the secondary sorting plate, and the cylinders correspond one-to-one with the ball limiting holes.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. First, stack the large ball sorting tray on the small ball sorting tray. Pour the mixed large and small balls into the large ball sorting tray. Since the mixed balls are of two sizes, the smaller balls fall down through the large ball limiting hole onto the lower fixed plate. During the rolling process, they fall into the small ball limiting hole and stop rolling. After the upper large ball limiting hole is filled with large balls, pull up the large ball sorting tray and put the small balls into the corresponding small ball limiting hole on the lower small ball sorting tray. This portable ball counting and sorting tool can quickly sort out large and small balls, and the two sorting trays can hold the same number of balls, which is convenient for accurately calculating the number of large and small balls.

[0014] 2. With the cooperation of the small ball sorting tray, fixed plate one, small ball limiting holes, color plate secondary sorting plate, support rod, and cylinder, after the small ball sorting tray and large ball sorting tray separate the small and large balls, the number of small balls falling onto the lower fixed plate one may be greater than the number of large balls falling onto the upper fixed plate one. After the upper large ball sorting tray is full of large balls, remove the large ball sorting tray. At this time, the secondary sorting plate can be inserted downwards onto the fixed plate one, and the small balls can be clamped and fixed by the cylinder. Shake the small ball sorting tray and the secondary sorting plate left and right. At this time, no small ball will fall to the corresponding small ball limiting hole. The small rubber balls inside the holes can roll along the gaps between the cylinders, moving the small rubber balls scattered in the middle of the fixed plate to the side wall of the fixed plate. Then, the secondary sorting plate is taken out. By observing whether the color plate at the bottom can be seen in the ball limiting hole, it can be intuitively determined whether there is a rubber ball in the ball limiting hole. The ball limiting holes without rubber balls are filled one by one. This device can screen rubber balls of different sizes, and then move the small balls that have not fallen into the corresponding ball limiting hole to the side wall of the fixed plate through the secondary sorting plate. Then, the small balls are filled one by one according to the prompts of the color plate. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 3 A convenient ball counting and sorting tool includes a small ball sorting tray 1 and a large ball sorting tray 2 slidably installed on the upper end of the small ball sorting tray 1. A fixing plate 11 is provided inside the small ball sorting tray 1, and a plurality of small ball limiting holes 12 are equally spaced on the fixing plate 11. A fixing plate 21 is fixedly installed inside the large ball sorting tray 2, and a plurality of large ball limiting holes 22 are equally spaced on the fixing plate 21.

[0022] In this embodiment: both the small ball sorting tray 1 and the large ball sorting tray 2 are rectangular boxes measuring 400*270*100mm, manufactured using engineering plastic through molding. The small ball sorting tray 1 has 100 φ15 circular holes 12 with a hole spacing of 29mm, and the large ball sorting tray 2 has 100 φ22 circular holes 22 with a hole spacing of 29mm. When sorting the balls, the large ball sorting tray 2 is first stacked on top of the small ball sorting tray 1, and the mixed balls of different sizes are poured into the large ball sorting tray 2. Because... The mixed rubber balls come in two sizes. The smaller rubber balls fall down through the large ball limiting hole 22 onto the lower fixed plate 11. As they roll, they fall into the small ball limiting hole 12 and stop rolling. Once the large ball limiting hole 22 at the top is full of large rubber balls, the large ball sorting tray 2 is pulled up, and small rubber balls are placed into the corresponding small ball limiting holes 12 on the small ball sorting tray 1 at the bottom. This portable rubber ball counting and sorting tool can quickly sort out large and small balls, and the two sorting trays can hold the same number of rubber balls, making it easy to accurately calculate the number of large and small balls.

[0023] Example 2: This example is an improvement on Example 1. For details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 - Figure 4 The number of small ball limiting holes 12 and large ball limiting holes 22 are the same. When the small ball sorting tray 1 and the large ball sorting tray 2 are stacked together, the small ball limiting holes 12 and the large ball limiting holes 22 correspond one-to-one.

[0024] A color plate 13 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the fixing plate 11. The color plate 13 adopts a color that is significantly different from other components.

[0025] An annular protrusion 14 is fixedly installed on the upper side wall of the small ball sorting tray 1, and a groove 24 is opened at the lower end of the large ball sorting tray 2, with the annular protrusion 14 slidably connected in the groove 24.

[0026] The outer peripheral sidewall of the large ball sorting tray 2 is provided with a lifting groove 23.

[0027] A secondary sorting plate 3 is movably installed on the upper end of the fixed plate 11. Support rods 31 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the secondary sorting plate 3. Several cylinders 32 are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the secondary sorting plate 3, and the cylinders 32 correspond one-to-one with the ball limiting holes 12.

[0028] In this embodiment: After the small ball sorting tray 1 and the large ball sorting tray 2 separate the small and large balls, the number of small balls falling onto the lower fixed plate 11 may be greater than the number of large balls falling onto the upper fixed plate 11. After the upper large ball sorting tray 2 is filled with large balls, the large ball sorting tray 2 is removed. At this time, the secondary sorting plate 3 can be inserted downwards onto the fixed plate 11, and the small balls are clamped and fixed by the cylinder 32. The small ball sorting tray 1 and the secondary sorting plate 3 are shaken left and right. At this time, the small balls that have not fallen into the corresponding small ball limiting hole 12 can roll along the gap between the cylinders 32. The small rubber balls scattered in the middle of the fixed plate 11 are moved to the side wall of the fixed plate 11. Then the secondary sorting plate 3 is taken out. By observing whether the color plate 13 at the lower end can be seen in the ball limiting hole 12, it can be intuitively known whether there are rubber balls in the ball limiting hole 12. The ball limiting holes 12 without rubber balls are filled with rubber balls one by one. This device can screen rubber balls of different sizes, and then move the small balls that have not fallen into the corresponding ball limiting hole 12 to the side wall of the fixed plate 11 through the secondary sorting plate 3. Then, the small balls are filled with rubber balls one by one according to the prompt of the color plate 13.

[0029] This invention solves the problem of manual counting and sorting of rubber balls, greatly shortening the time for counting and sorting rubber balls of different diameters. More importantly, both large and small diameter rubber balls can automatically return to their respective positions within the openings of the small ball sorting tray 1 and the large ball sorting tray 2, thus achieving rapid and accurate sorting. The rubber ball recovery rate can be accurately calculated, preventing blockages in important equipment and reduced heat exchanger terminal differentials due to human error in counting or recovering rubber balls, which could affect the overall output of the generator unit. This invention not only meets the technical supervision requirements of the equipment but also features a simple structure, light weight, and corrosion resistance. It is extremely convenient to use, saving manpower and time during operation and greatly reducing the risk of condenser tube blockage, corrosion, or even unit shutdown caused by insufficient rubber ball input rate.
